I am using Evolution 2.22.1 from final Hardy release. I am using Evolution to connect to my company's exchange server (over an internet connection). Everything seems to be working fine (stability is not at its best).

The one issue is with contacts, I can't search for them and they don't auto-complete when typing in names on a new message's "to" field. Generally speaking, I have found no way to see my company's contacts.

I played around a lot with the Global Address List server name field trying a lot of options I found in posts on the net. None of them worked (BTW: leaving it empty spiked my CPU hard, but I read that's documented somewhere already).

Does Evolution rely only on the GAL server for contacts, can't it grab them from the OWA? If the GAL is my company's DC then there is no way I can connect to it over the internet (and I doubt there is any company which opens its DC to the net).
